HTC One (M8)

Under the hood sits a Snapdragon 801 chipset clocked up to 2.5GHz depending on region, paired with an Adreno 330 GPU and 2GB RAM. That's enough grunt for Android KitKat, which is upgradable to Lollipop. The 5-inch Super LCD3 screen runs at full HD resolution with a sharp 441 ppi density, and storage comes in 16GB or 32GB variants with microSD support up to 128GB for anyone who needs more room.

The rear camera setup is a dual 4MP arrangement with a dual-LED flash, a different approach from the high-megapixel race most rivals were chasing at the time. Front camera duties go to a 5MP shooter with HDR and 1080p video. Battery capacity sits at 2600mAh, modest by today's standards but reasonable for a phone this slim at 9.4mm. HTC One (M8) price in Malaysia starts from RM2190, and it's sold in Gunmetal Gray, Glacial Silver, and Amber Gold.

Connectivity covers LTE Cat4, dual-band Wi-Fi with ac support, NFC, and infrared, so it still checks most boxes buyers expect from a flagship of its generation.
